Tools and Hardware Reviews of JDS 14031 Dust-Force 1.5 HP 1250 CFM Dust Collector

Customer Review: Fell short because of the plastic garbage bag on bottom
Summary: 4 Stars

The Dust-Force came packaged well and arrived fairly fast considering it was on backorder. It is a big improvement over the Jet 650 I have been using. It seems to be a sturdy well built piece of equipment with great suction. I was surprise that it is much quiter than expected and assembly was pretty straight forward. My problem lies with the 1 micron free package. I was under the assumption that I was buying what was pictured, a dust collector with top and bottom bags cloth and a free 1 micron kit in addition. What I got was the original dust collection bags removed and a cloth 1 micron upper bag and an oversized garbage bag on steroids for a bottom bag. The plastic bottom bag is much larger in diameter than the machine, it has no provision for the metal strap as the upper bag or cloth bag would have, this makes for a major pain. Picture this a shiney metal, slippery surface and a plastic bag that is too big and no way to secure it to the machine while you try to get this metal strap around the machine and bag without the bag falling off, is this a joke? After finally getting my grandson to hold onto the bag while I tried to wrap the strap and lock it only to find the bag puckers like someone with a 32" waist putting on a 38" pair of pants and a belt with no belt loops! needless to say everywhere there is a pucker there is a leak. Why JDS dropped the ball on such a fine machine to save a dollar or two is beyond me. I have asked Amazon to send me the bag for the bottom that I thought I was getting as the picture showed. This wasn't a free kit. it was a poor substitute for what I was buying and would like to know where the original bags are, if this was a free bonus. JDS needs to throw the garbage bags in the garbage or improve them or provide a cloth bag as they used too, then this would be an excellent piece of equipment.
********Update: JDS contacted me today and were eager to listen to my concerns. I must say they have the best customer service I have ever encountered. They explained their thinking behind the bag system and offered to do whatever I thought would make me satisfied. This is a 5 star company. Thanks JDS and Amazon
